The ruling on fasting the entire month of al-Muharram

He says: What is the ruling on fasting the entire month of al-Muharram, because we heard that this has not been established from the Prophet, may Allah send peace and blessings upon him. So what is the ruling on fasting it entirely?

From the scholars are those who said that it can be fasted entirely, but it is better that he does not fast it entirely because Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her says: "The Prophet, may Allah send peace and blessings upon him, did not fast an entire month except Ramadan." [Reported by Muslim]
